MEGILLAH BIBLE ESTHER SCROLL ILLUST MANUSCRIPT Iran Persian Persia Book Jewish



You have before you a unique, Megilat Esther, ie scroll of the Biblical story of Esther which is read on Purim, a time of miracles and joy. The Scroll is  PRINTED and (was originally written  with a beautiful Beth Yosef script (see my other auction where I am selling the original).

MEASUREMENTS: The scroll measures 8.5 inches in height and a little over 7 feet in length.


These types of megillot are not usually printed with illustrations, but this is one you don't want to miss.The Megillah's illustrations were well thought out before being produced, using the Midrashic Rabbinical sources who were privy to "inside information" of the miraculous events which occured about 2500 years ago! 

It begins with illustrations of the vessels of the Holy Temple taken by the evil Nebuchadenzer King of Babylon (Saddam Hussein's spiritual ancestor) at the time of destruction of the first Temple.

These vessels were the very same vessels used at the feast of Ahashveirosh.

 

The various illustrated frames are illustrated according to the story in the megillah.

The upper section of the megillah is also decoratively illustrated.
